I've done a little of this editing, but there is a lot more to do to
make everything clear and findable. I think your analysis of the
needed changes is spot on, so feel free to have a go.

I've added the return bus times BL->Zagreb
Making a page for this on the main wiki would be best.

The summary page from 2008 http://iaeste.ba/jump/howtoget.html that is linked from
http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf11/Travel-Arriving#By_train_or_bus
shows a nice format for providing the basic info I think. (That page
is now slightly outdated - same number of trains I think, but the
times have changed a little.

Hack away - I think your overview is as good as anyone elses.
Add a page for bus timetables BL<->Zagreb.
add a page for train summary to/from BL
Tidy up the 'travel tips' page till it's clear :-)
Wookey
